Some of the products used in this project... "Creating Painted Wrought Iron"

Off Broadway scenic paint
Perhaps the most widely used range of scenic paint in the world, Off Broadway is specially suited to the multiple demands of scene shops and artists. This vinyl acrylic product may be used right out of the container, or mixed with water for greater economy. There are more than 20 colon in the traditional scenic palette, including three metallic colors. Off Broadway adheres well to nearly all the surfaces used in stagecraft.

Supersaturated RoscoPaint
One of Rosco’s three ranges of scenic paints, Supersaturated is specially suited to the glazing techniques described in this brochure. The range includes 23 brilliant, dye-like colors. Supersaturated with pigment, the colors are formulated to be diluted with substantial quantities of water while retaining binder strength. This paint adheres to most scenic I surfaces, including muslin, plastic and metal and dries to a completely matte, non-reflective finish.

FoamCoat
Foamcoat is a water-based, flame retarding protective coating for Styrofoam and polystyrene foams. It is often mixed with FlexBond, as it was for the project described in these pages. Whether diluted or used alone, Foamcoat dries to a hard durable coating that resists chipping and cracking, yet can be sanded smooth or carved with detailing. Foamcoat is often used as a texturing agent to create custom patterns like bark or stone work.

Flexbond
A clear, flexible scenic glue which bonds many porous and nonporous scenic materials. FlexBond is also often mixed with Foamcoat. When used alone as a glue, it dries to a clear, hard, yet pliable coating that does not suffer from the "tackiness" common in many other flexible glues. unlike ordinary "white" glues, which crack and break when flexed, the adhesive bond of FlexBond remains extremely pliable and strong even as the material bends and deforms
